Designer Notes: This scenario simulates the first two days of the 9th Guards Rifle Corps attack towards Bolkov.

Scenario Briefing: On July 12, 1943, the 9th Guards Rifle Corps of General Belov’s 61st Army, had the mission to cross the river Oka, take the towns on the west bank of the river and once established in their bridgeheads, was to advance towards the strategic city of Bolkhov. Within the city was a large logistics center supporting all the northern Orel front. The German high command had built significant fortifications both along the river Oka and in the city itself. The 9th Guards Rifle Corps was supported by the powerful artillery of the 7th Breakthrough Art Corps and had armored support from the 68th Tank Bde. General Belov also kept the 20th Tank Corps in reserve.

Soft Conditions on day two of scenario slows the Russians down. Russian artillery is so powerful the Germans should retreat to second line of defense soon as possible.
